The focus of Disrupt II is a range of new works, dealing with the theme of disruption, evoking the zeitgeist of our times. The installation includes a selection from the artist’s series of 101 handmade artist books, entitled “101 ways to long for a home” seeks to subvert the traditional notion of linear word-based storytelling. It employs a fragmented visual language and relies on the multi-layered meanings generated by found material. The discarded parquet floor blocks featured in the intricate construction of the books and objects are sourced from Woodstock in Cape Town, where a gentrification process causes the demolition of old homes and buildings.
